The CO2 emissions he has single-handedly contributed by swanning around the world is totally justified by the amount of people he's inspired into climate protection, conservation and the like... his lifetime worth of emissions is just a drop in the ocean of what's pumped in our atmosphere in a single day. Nobody has ever done anything close what he's done in inspiring multiple generations and nobody will for a very long time. This dude could rip off a newborn's head and shit down it's neck and it'll be ok with me. He's the MVP.

Ah, I see someone is happy about my push last year to return the Herald as a QO. Am afraid to say my current attempts to get Mumsnet accepted as a DDP Qualifying Obit are being treated with far more scepticism by Reptile and Grim!

Felicity Kendal, still living a good life, is 74 today.

American artist Eric Bransby (wiki), described by the NPR as "one of the last living links to the great age of American mural painting", dead a month shy of his 104th birthday.

Nothing on him, apart from people calling him Jihadi the Hutt on Twitter

Skateboarding icon and probably the first person to bring hip-hop into skate videos back in the early 90s, Keith Hufnagel has died aged 46. In perhaps a sign of where skateboarders now lie in the fame firmament, he got a QO from The Sun without any worries.

Mark Hamill is 69

No worries its totally understandable and frankly yes things can seem so much more serious and intense online than what they are in reality . We are living through very stressful, straining and unusual times. I think we all fray in these circumstances even just a little bit and even the best of us. Strange as it may sound I have found this forum on the whole good escapism and also cathartic especially this year.Hard to explain but it's not delight more a sort of release and strangely grounding.

Here's the full list. Accurate as of December 29, 2024

Not really, although.... This is a reasonable point, all deaths matter, why should celebrity deaths matter more? Well they don't of course, but the site is about celebrity deaths by definition, not celebrity births. Doesn't break any rules, why should it have been? Not up to me and I'm only expressing an opinion. Because I, and I suspect others default is to read 'new posts'. If I could blank a thread rather than a poster, I would have. For sure. I've said it often enough. But, I'm still going to post 'bored of this' if I am. Makes the world go round.

Well this actually confirms that Bobby Wilson died on 21st September: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/244507/wilson Note: Top English tennis player dies, so far as I know only covered in the Herald Scotland. Wow. That Dean Jones must have been really British. Anyway, I got my hit and my QO without waiting months.

Why? Your predictions are (even you admit) terrible.

If I hadn't been told who that was, there's no way I'd have guessed.

This cunt has spent the bulk of his career traversing the globe, film crew and tons of equipment in tow, on aircraft that has shat out more nasty emissions than all of the cars Ford ever made*. Another hypocritical prick who needs to shut the fuck up. 'David, darling, we have a pandemic on our hands....' *maybe

Unwilling to commit to smooth transfer of power if he loses in November I get all the tough talk but when people like him fall...they absolutely crash and burn. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-us-2020-54274115

Another recent, in which he looks like a bit like he has a mission for you in Grand Theft Auto.

Everyone can do the Day Today sketch here... "In 1990, he wasn't deathlisty. In 1991, he wasn't deathlisty. In 1992, he wasn't deathlisty. In 1993, he wasn't deathlisty... (sped up for sanity)... in 2019, he wasn't deathlisty, in 2020, he is deathlisty. Hell at the rate of fame he's suddenly got he might replace Boris before Christmas..." The guy's had 6 fucking documentaries in the last 4 months. I know because I watched them all. Hey, there was a fucking lockdown on the go...

I am going to replace position number 11 with Gene Hackman

I was one second away from posting this when my computer shut down and I thought i'd need to redo it all, but it's here and I don't have to scream into a pillow.

Neither is he anymore
